Dwayne & Jane, We only recently heard about your dad’s passing. He seems to have had a rich life that included having a good family. We wanted to attend the service even for a few minutes but scheduling prevents us from doing so on Monday morning. You and your family are in our thoughts today. Mark & Kris
